Your characterization of what I said is overly simplistic and ..wrong. I am saying that even with a good sample, replication studies only have about at most an 80% chance to replicate a true effect for studies that had reported a "moderately-sized" effect size. A lot of other things can account for the extra 30%, including picking the more dubious of findings out there (which seem to be mainly social psychology not cognitive psychology studies).
Looking at your other comments on HN, you seem to love throwing bombs and trolling.
- GreenToad5 8y agoThat isn't actually even close to what you said (very contrasting statements). 50% is quite horrible (I was not the one who down voted you, but I see others agree). BTW, mentioning your opinion of someone's "other comments" doesn't help your case either. It makes you appear desperate to cause a distraction or detraction.
